I have to go with James K. Polk.  He expanded the country dramatically, yet never gets any credit for it.

Yes, when did it not become a serious thread?

You cannot call TR underrated, since he is always in the top 5, but some people have LBJ in the bottom half, so he could be conceivably called underrated.

I think most people would call him overrated (I don't, but still).

I've always seen him in the top 10, where exactly would you put him?

Chester A. Arthur, of course. One of the greatest presidents we never hear about. He modernized the navy, cleaned up corruption in government and established rules for civil service. The man was a great president.

I couldn't agree more.  Arthur is very underrated.

I don't see how Truman can be underrated; he always makes the 7 or 8 when ranked.
